Welcome to Elliott Hudson College

Welcome to Elliott Hudson CollegeOur community is built upon clear beliefs and values and the fundamental belief that all students can achieve, providing that they are taught well and that they are supported in developing the skills and habits for life-long success.We know that if we focus on building a community in which students support, encourage, and believe in one another, we are all more likely to achieve beyond what we ever thought we could. The unpredictability of the past two years has taught me the importance of being embraced by a community where positivity, kindness and diversity are championed. Our experience tells us that a culture that celebrates individuals and embraces difference is one in which all can thrive.Lee Styles Principal David G. Holtham Executive Principal: Post 16 Education
